11. C HAPTER 3 E VIDENCE FROM M EDICAL LITERATURE Marham e Issa Ointment of Issa Jesus in India

12. M ARHAM - I -I SA OR THE 'O INTMENT OF J ESUS ‘ IS A DULY RECORDED MEDICAL PREPARATION A study of different pharmacopoeias shows that this preparation is very useful in injuries as it contains 'myrrh’ Eminent physicians of all religions, Christians, Jews, Magians and Muslims, recorded that this ointment was prepared for Jesus by the disciples Later, this work was translated into Arabic at the time of Mamun-al-Rashid Shortly after the crucifixion, a pharmacopoeia was compiled in Latin, which recorded this prescription and testified that this ointment was prepared for the treatment of the wounds of Jesus Jesus in India Page 65

13. M ARHAM - I -I SA OR THE 'O INTMENT OF J ESUS ’ ‘Myrrh' is mentioned in the Torah The wounds of Jesus healed up in a few days by the use of this ointment. Within three days he recovered sufficiently to be able to march on foot from Jerusalem to Galilee The books which record this fact number more than one thousand and a list of these books is available Jesus in India Page 66

14. THE OINTMENT OF J ESUS — CONSTITUTES A VERY IMPORTANT TESTIMONY FOR SEEKERS AFTER TRUTH These records about the 'Ointment of Jesus', almost serves as an epitaph, of the fact that the ointment had been prepared for the treatment of Jesus' injuries Qaraabaadeen (Pharmacopoeia), which contains details about Marham-i-Isa, retain the Greek term Shalikha, which means 'twelve', probably referring to twelve ingredients corresponding to 12 disciples* Jesus in India Page 70 *According to Qaanun of Avicenna (Al-Qaanun Fi AI-Tibb by Abu Ali Ibn-e-Sina vol. 3 chapter 4 on ointments), the Ointment of Jesus has also been known as Marham Dashlikha, Marham-ul-Hawariyyin, and Marham-ur­Rusol, and contains twelve ingredients corresponding to the twelve disciples

15. O INTMENT OF J ESUS HEALED WOUND SUSTAINED BY J ESUS ON THE CROSS The idea that Jesus received his injuries through some other cause is not supported by the annals of any nation His ministry lasted only three-and-a-half years, and during this time no accident or injury, except for the trauma of the cross, has been recorded Jesus in India Page 71-72 The onus of proof lies with him who is under the impression that Jesus sustained these injuries in some other way, for the event of the cross, to which we have referred, is a proved and established historical fact

Islam was not in existence at the time when these books on medicine, in Latin and Greek were compiled Evidence dates pre- Islam These books state that the 'Ointment of Jesus' was prepared for Jesus by his disciples Consistency of evidence Evidence is accepted by Christians, Muslims and Magians nations Wide acceptance of evidence Jesus in India Page 71-72 O INTMENT OF J ESUS EVIDENCE IS INCONVERTIBLE

17. O INTMENT OF J ESUS ; EVIDENCE IS INCONVERTIBLE W HY NOW ? Jesus in India Page 73-74 True, until the coming of the Promised Messiah, it did not occur to any of these people to make use of the historical importance of this ointment The Holy Prophet ( pbuh) prophesied that the faith of the cross shall neither decline nor shall its progress slow down until the Promised Messiah appeared in this world. It was at his hands that the 'breaking of the cross' was to be brought about It was inevitable, therefore, that heaven should withhold such incontrovertible proof and conclusive evidence until the coming of the Promised Messiah Meaning that at the time of the Promised Messiah, God would create conditions which would lay bare the truth about the crucifixion
